Croker, according to reports to-day,
has within the last two days person-ally
assured President-elect Cleveland
that should Edward Murphy, Jr., be
chosen to the United States senate he
would in no way embarass the admin-istration,

ILLEGAL LEASES
The Cherokee Strip Lease C»*es Decided
The Court’s Holding’.
Kansas City, Jan. 9.—The district
court of Wyandotte county, Kan., to-day
decided the lease of the famous
Cherokee strip outlet illegal and void.
The case was brought by the Cherokee
Strip Land and Live Stock association
against J. V. Andrews and others, to
collect $5000 for the use of grazing
land in the strip leased from the asso-ciation.
The court held the original lease of
the strip by the association from the
Indians was illegal, and therefore sub-leases
made by the association to its
stockholders were likewise illegal.
SPEAKERSHIP CONTESf.
Killed by a Train.
Special Dispa'ch to The uay-Gloae
Brenham, Jan. 9.—Last night, at
the crossing of the Aransas Pass and
Houston and Texas Central railways,
at Giddings, Mr. John Vogler, a
prominent young dry goods dealer,
while walking up the track stumbled
and fell in front of the incoming pas-senger
train, which ran over his leg,
crushed it and struck his head. He
died from the effects of his wounds at
a late hour last night.
IT IS ONE OF GREAT INTEREST
AND IMPORTANCE.
Governor Hogg Favors tbe Election of
^ Gossett, for Many R asons-Warm
Talk Concerning linboden.
Sped'll foTti - Day Globe.
Austin, Tex., Jan. 9.—Tomorrow
is the all important day when the
solons will give the opening consider-tions
to the organization of the 23rd
legislature. As a matter of fact, as
well as one of great importance, the
contest over the speakership in the
house is the all absorbing question.
Gov. Hogg is particularly anxious to
have Gossett elected for more reasons
than one, the principal one, however,
is that by electing Gossett Hogg gets
all the committees arranged to suit
himself.
The senate is of course all right as
both Pendleton and Crane will make
committees according to the slate that
will be furnished them by Hogg him-self.
And to get the house also means
that any pet scheme .that Gov. Hogg
may desire to arrange can be done
with smoothness and expedious-ness.
So it is needless *o add with
what solicitude Gov. Hogg watches
the change of the tide. And during
all this heated caucusing what of Im-boden
?
Ask of the angels who keep the
fires of Hades in a nice glowing con-dition.
For surely there you may
find this urbane youth who has had
such greatness thrust upon him (?)
He has consigned so many to that
home of rare Southern warmth that he
will doubtless, if he has not already
done so, go there in the-still hours of
to-night to see how they are faring.
But if he does not leave to-night for
that refuge where Sam Jones has
made such extensive preparations for
future habitation he will certainly live
over again to-morrow all the miseries
and agonies of that place when he
sees so many Clark men have a say in
the way the pudding shall be sliced.
A whole state will sympathize with
this youth who has spoken, not wisely,
but too well, for though not in fellow-ship
with him, his grief will be so
great that it will be pitiable.
IMPOTENT IMBODEN
He Thought things Were Coming His Way,
But Was Fooled.
Special to The Day-Globe.
Austin, Jan. 9.—This afternoon
the Hogg faction attempted to have a
caucus in the senate chamber. Tom
Henderson, of Milam, was elected
chairman, and all non-supporters of
Hogg were requested to leave.
Numerous speeches were made and
Imboden was happy, but ere long
wiser Leads concluded not to abide by
the caucus, and walked out. The
meeting was given up and Imboden
was the saddest man in the world. The
Hogg men are doing a great deal of
work—on the quiet, though—and
claim all offices.
Situation is Doubtful.
Special to Tiie nay-G obe.
Austin, Jan. 9.—It is claimed to-night
that Ham Gossett is losing
ground, and that the race for the
speakership of the house is settling
down to Rogan, Wilson and Cocrhan,
All West Texas is claimed solid for
Rogan. Wilson has come round at an
alarming rate within the past twenty-four
hours.
Caucuses are as thick to-night as
blackbirds in a forest tree.

Special to The Day-Git be.
Austin, Jan. 9.—-The legislature
assembles to-morrow at noon, and
nea. ly all the members have arrived,
along with a hungry horde of office-seekers
and a few lobbyists. Noth-ing
is talked of to-night except the
speakership contest.
The administration is backing Gos-sett
clear up to the eyes, notwith •
standing Cochran with Breed-ing
and Rogan have all
been Hogg men up to this time.
The Gossett, or administration men,
have been endeavoring to get up a
caucus to select the candidate and
also to pledge the members against
supporting Clark men for the clerk-ship
and other offices, but they failed
dismally, owing to the strength of the
[ opposition to Gossett and the caucus
demised.
At a conference held to-night Ro-gan’s
strength has about decided to go
to Wilson, which will give him a good
chance to win. A bitter fight is
being waged against Dr. Smoot for
chaplain of the senate because he
favored Clark, but his friends say he
will surely land.
The governor has been doing ev-erything
in his power, in a quiet way,
to have the caucus held and to elect
Gossett. The opposition is jubilant
to-night.
Kogan’s Defeat Conceded.
?p*chl to Tbe Day Globe.
Austin, Jan. 9.—At a late hour to-night
the Rosan men had a caucus
and decided to support Wilson. There
were about twenty members present,
and other supporters of Rogan, learn-ing
of the action of the caucus, raised
a kick, as they were for Cochran next
to Rogan. The way the case stands
now, about twenty of the Rogan men
will go for Wilson, while the remain-ing
ten or fifteen will go for Cochran.
Rogan men concede his defeat -to-night,
if nominated.

WHAT THE PEOPLE’S REPRESEN-TATIVES
DID YESTERDAY-A
Five Hours’ Session of the Senate, In
Which Very Little Is Done-Thu Anti-
Opt on Bill to Come Fp Soon.
Senate.
Washington, Jan. 9.—The senate
was in session to-day over five hours.
Half of the time was spent on Me-
Pherson’s (Democrat) of New Jersey,
joint resolution authorizing and direct-ing
the secretary of the treasury to
suspend all purchases of silver under
' the Sherman act, and the other half of
the bill granting additional quarantine
powers and imposing additional duties
upon marine hospital services.
McPherson addressed the senate at
length in support of his joint resolu-tion,
and when he resumed his seat,
Aldrich, (Republican,) of Rhode Is-land,
gave notice of a substitute which
he proposed to offer, and asked unani-mous
consent in order to test the sin-cerity
of the Democrats of the chamber
whom he accused of “masquerading”
to have a vote taken on the substitute
and original bill to-morrow. Objee-tion
came from Daniel, (Democrat,)
of Virginia, and the matter went over
indefinitely and without any agree-ment.
' Aldrich’s substitute proposed to au-thorize
the issue of bonds to procure,
if necessary, and maintain a parity be-tween
gold and silver coins, and its
treasury notes,; and also provided for
the suspension of the purchase of sil-ver
bullion on the first of July, 1894,
if before that time there be no inter-national
agreement reached by which
gold and silver will be given equal
mintage rights, at an agreed ratio.
' A discussion of the quarantine bill
took place on the amendment offered
by White (Democrat), of Louisiana,
committing the operation to the first
January, 1895. No vote was reached
on the amendment and the bill will be
taken up again to-morrow in the
morning hour, and continued until at
least 2 o’clock, when the anti-option
bill will have precedence unless Wash-burn
(Republican), of Minnesota, who
has it in charge, shall yield further
time to the quarantine bill.
The McGarrahan hill also, went
over till the morning hour Wednes-day.
McPherson’s text plank in the last
Democratic national convention, de-nouncing
the Sherman bill as a cow-ardly
makeshift and declaring that
legislation be repealed on the strength
of that pledge; that more than 100
electoral votes were given Cleveland,
not one of which he could have re-ceived
without it and now the Demo-cratic
party was soon to be in absolute
control of the legislature and execu-tive
of the government in all its
branches, the people demanded to
know when and in what mode the
pledge would be fulfilled. It was
when McPherson finished his remarks
he Aldrich substitute episode oc-curred,
as noted.
After the action mentioned on the
quarantine and McGarrahan bills the
senate adjourned.
Cleveland and Stevenson. This is the
first time for thirty-six years that the
Democrats have received any illinois
electoral votes.
After adjourning the electors called
in a body on Vice President-elect
Stevenson, who is in the city to at-tend
the inauguration of state officers
to-morrow.
AnUnmana^eabie Car.
Cleveland, O., Jan. 9.—Late last
night, in a collision between a street
car and a New York, Pennsylvania and
Ohio locomotive, at the Union street
crossing, five persons were painfully
but fortunately not fatally injured.
The accident was caused by the motor-man
losing control of his car on a
down grade and a slippery track.
Reward.
Pursuant to a resolution passed by
the city council, I hereby offer a re-ward
of $50 for the arrest and convic-tion
of the person or persons who de-stroyed

House.
The District of Columbia appropria-tion
bill passed the house this morn-ing.
Then the house was consumed in con-sideration
of the bill to promote the
efficiency of the militia, hut there was
no determination.
The remainder of the day . was de-voted
to the consideration of the bill
permitting the Norfolk and Western
Railroad company to enter the Dis-trict
of Columbia, and after a three
hours’ struggle on it a truce was de-clared
and the fight postponed by re-cess
until 11:45 to-morrow.
Pushed It Through.
Washington, Jan. 9.—The house
committee on banking and currency
to-day, by a decisive vote, pushed the
Andrew banking and bullion purchase
repeal bill, together with the Cate
amendment for the coinage of the sil-ver
bullion now in the treasury,
through the committee, and ordered
its report to the house. This . was
done in pursuance of a plan of the
opponents of the Sherman silver law,
to repeal the bill on the .calendar at
the earliest possible moment, in order
to work out practical legislation at
this session, if possible. All proposi-tions
involving delay were voted down.
Another significant feature of the
meeting was that a motion by Cox, of
Tennessee, to carry out the state
hank plank in the Chicago platform,
was defeated by 11 to 1.
Townsend, of Colorado, offered the
Stewart free coinage bill. This was
voted down.
Favorably Reported.
Washington, Jan. 9.—Raynor,from:
the house committee on interstate and
foreign commerce, to-day made a fav-orable
report on the bill for the estab-lishment
of national quarantine. A
Measure similar to the Harris bill is
now under discussion in the senate.
Gaining Strength.
Washington, Jan. 9.—Senator-
Kenna continues to improve, and is.
slowly but surely regaining his,
strength.
Nom'natinns Confirmed.
Washington. Jan. 9.—The senate
to-day confirmed the nomination of'
Henry Clay Evans, of Teonesse, to be-first
assistant postmaster general.
GRAIN AT GALVESTON
Large Quantities of Wheat Ready for Ex—
port at the JsLndCIty.
Speu'sr to The Day-Globe:
Galveston, Jan. 9.—Large quanti-ties
of Kansas and Indian Territory
wheat are arriving here for foreign ex-portation.
Already between 75,000-
and 100,000 bushels have been re-ceived
and stored in the large elevator
of the Galveston Wharf company. J.
M. Brown, president of the wharf
company, stated to the press repre-sentative
this evening that 150,000
bushels were en rente td this port for
exportation, and that every facility
would be afforded by the wharf com-pany
to encourage and build up a
grain exporting business from this
port.
Several foreign steamers are now en
route to this port which will receive,
cargoes of grain from the elevator-chutes
and receive quick dispatch.
Mr. Brown was of the opinion that by
the close of the present commercial
year Galveston would make a very
creditable showing as a grain export-ing
port.
COAL COMBINE BROKEN-It
is Thought Fear of Action by the Legis-
Lature Did it.
Trenton, Jan. 9.—The Reading-coal
combine is broken. The New’
Jersey Central railroad company has
withdrawn from it, and will hereafter
be operated independently, as it was
before the agreement with the Reading
and Lehigh valley was entered. Read-ing
authorites here decline to speak
about the matter, hut an official of
the Central this afternoon confirmed
the truth of the news.
He said Attorney General Stockton
was in possession of a communication
from the Central in which is ackuowl-edged,
that all its agreements With, the
roads in question are cancelled and
terminated. This applies also to the
leases under which the coal lands were
recently absorbed by the combine.
What influence moved the Central
to take this step is not known, but
undoubtedly the fear of actoin on the
part of the legislature had something
to do with it.

WHAT THE PEOPLE’S REPRESEN-TATIVES
DID YESTERDAY-A
Five Hours’ Session of the Senate, In
Which Very Little Is Done-Thu Anti-
Opt on Bill to Come Fp Soon.
Senate.
Washington, Jan. 9.—The senate
was in session to-day over five hours.
Half of the time was spent on Me-
Pherson’s (Democrat) of New Jersey,
joint resolution authorizing and direct-ing
the secretary of the treasury to
suspend all purchases of silver under
' the Sherman act, and the other half of
the bill granting additional quarantine
powers and imposing additional duties
upon marine hospital services.
McPherson addressed the senate at
length in support of his joint resolu-tion,
and when he resumed his seat,
Aldrich, (Republican,) of Rhode Is-land,
gave notice of a substitute which
he proposed to offer, and asked unani-mous
consent in order to test the sin-cerity
of the Democrats of the chamber
whom he accused of “masquerading”
to have a vote taken on the substitute
and original bill to-morrow. Objee-tion
came from Daniel, (Democrat,)
of Virginia, and the matter went over
indefinitely and without any agree-ment.
' Aldrich’s substitute proposed to au-thorize
the issue of bonds to procure,
if necessary, and maintain a parity be-tween
gold and silver coins, and its
treasury notes,; and also provided for
the suspension of the purchase of sil-ver
bullion on the first of July, 1894,
if before that time there be no inter-national
agreement reached by which
gold and silver will be given equal
mintage rights, at an agreed ratio.
' A discussion of the quarantine bill
took place on the amendment offered
by White (Democrat), of Louisiana,
committing the operation to the first
January, 1895. No vote was reached
on the amendment and the bill will be
taken up again to-morrow in the
morning hour, and continued until at
least 2 o’clock, when the anti-option
bill will have precedence unless Wash-burn
(Republican), of Minnesota, who
has it in charge, shall yield further
time to the quarantine bill.
The McGarrahan hill also, went
over till the morning hour Wednes-day.
McPherson’s text plank in the last
Democratic national convention, de-nouncing
the Sherman bill as a cow-ardly
makeshift and declaring that
legislation be repealed on the strength
of that pledge; that more than 100
electoral votes were given Cleveland,
not one of which he could have re-ceived
without it and now the Demo-cratic
party was soon to be in absolute
control of the legislature and execu-tive
of the government in all its
branches, the people demanded to
know when and in what mode the
pledge would be fulfilled. It was
when McPherson finished his remarks
he Aldrich substitute episode oc-curred,
as noted.
After the action mentioned on the
quarantine and McGarrahan bills the
senate adjourned.
Cleveland and Stevenson. This is the
first time for thirty-six years that the
Democrats have received any illinois
electoral votes.
After adjourning the electors called
in a body on Vice President-elect
Stevenson, who is in the city to at-tend
the inauguration of state officers
to-morrow.

Cleveland, O., Jan. 9.—Late last
night, in a collision between a street
car and a New York, Pennsylvania and
Ohio locomotive, at the Union street

but fortunately not fatally injured.
The accident was caused by the motor-man
losing control of his car on a
down grade and a slippery track.

House.
The District of Columbia appropria-tion
bill passed the house this morn-ing.
Then the house was consumed in con-sideration
of the bill to promote the
efficiency of the militia, hut there was
no determination.
The remainder of the day . was de-voted
to the consideration of the bill
permitting the Norfolk and Western
Railroad company to enter the Dis-trict
of Columbia, and after a three
hours’ struggle on it a truce was de-clared
and the fight postponed by re-cess
until 11:45 to-morrow.
Pushed It Through.
Washington, Jan. 9.—The house
committee on banking and currency
to-day, by a decisive vote, pushed the
Andrew banking and bullion purchase
repeal bill, together with the Cate
amendment for the coinage of the sil-ver
bullion now in the treasury,
through the committee, and ordered
its report to the house. This . was
done in pursuance of a plan of the
opponents of the Sherman silver law,
to repeal the bill on the .calendar at
the earliest possible moment, in order
to work out practical legislation at
this session, if possible. All proposi-tions
involving delay were voted down.
Another significant feature of the
meeting was that a motion by Cox, of
Tennessee, to carry out the state
hank plank in the Chicago platform,
was defeated by 11 to 1.
Townsend, of Colorado, offered the
Stewart free coinage bill. This was
voted down.
Favorably Reported.
Washington, Jan. 9.—Raynor,from:
the house committee on interstate and
foreign commerce, to-day made a fav-orable
report on the bill for the estab-lishment
of national quarantine. A
Measure similar to the Harris bill is
now under discussion in the senate.
Gaining Strength.
Washington, Jan. 9.—Senator-
Kenna continues to improve, and is.
slowly but surely regaining his,
strength.
Nom'natinns Confirmed.
Washington. Jan. 9.—The senate
to-day confirmed the nomination of'
Henry Clay Evans, of Teonesse, to be-first
assistant postmaster general.
GRAIN AT GALVESTON
Large Quantities of Wheat Ready for Ex—
port at the JsLndCIty.
Speu'sr to The Day-Globe:
Galveston, Jan. 9.—Large quanti-ties
of Kansas and Indian Territory
wheat are arriving here for foreign ex-portation.
Already between 75,000-
and 100,000 bushels have been re-ceived
and stored in the large elevator
of the Galveston Wharf company. J.
M. Brown, president of the wharf
company, stated to the press repre-sentative
this evening that 150,000
bushels were en rente td this port for
exportation, and that every facility
would be afforded by the wharf com-pany
to encourage and build up a
grain exporting business from this
port.
Several foreign steamers are now en
route to this port which will receive,
cargoes of grain from the elevator-chutes
and receive quick dispatch.
Mr. Brown was of the opinion that by
the close of the present commercial
year Galveston would make a very
creditable showing as a grain export-ing
port.
COAL COMBINE BROKEN-It
is Thought Fear of Action by the Legis-
Lature Did it.
Trenton, Jan. 9.—The Reading-coal
combine is broken. The New’
Jersey Central railroad company has
withdrawn from it, and will hereafter
be operated independently, as it was
before the agreement with the Reading
and Lehigh valley was entered. Read-ing
authorites here decline to speak
about the matter, hut an official of
the Central this afternoon confirmed
the truth of the news.
He said Attorney General Stockton
was in possession of a communication
from the Central in which is ackuowl-edged,
that all its agreements With, the
roads in question are cancelled and
terminated. This applies also to the
leases under which the coal lands were
recently absorbed by the combine.
What influence moved the Central
to take this step is not known, but
undoubtedly the fear of actoin on the
part of the legislature had something
to do with it.
